Abstract: By opening the neutral wire in an AC power strip, and connecting binding posts to the opened connection, the measurement of current to an appliance plugged into the strip is facilitated. Directions for constructing one-milliohm and one-ohm shunts are given. These may be connected to the bindings posts to measure current draw with a voltage measurement by a digital multimeter. Using these shunts for current measurements in lab experiments is also discussed.
